8 week program
with Abbey Willis
About the
Strength training
The point of a strength program is to improve your lifts in order for you to perform better under higher loads. Progression is only achieved through progressive overload and when we lift weights, our bodies thankfully compensate by getting stronger and building muscle when moving well.
For most people it’s not about a 1 rep max. As fun as they can be to find out and achieve, we are actually looking to help you improve your strength in the three main lifts (squat, deadlift, bench) for you to utilise in other training methods. Building your strength for functionality instead of for “show”.
That’s why we’ve designed a progressive program with varying rep ranges and weight loads working to improve your current 5 rep max (using % work to do so).
We have had proven results following this 8 week plan and are excited for you to take not only your strength but form and understanding of movements to the next level.
Equipment: Barbell plates, squat rack, bench press, kettlebells and dumbbells.
